Simpkins considered himself a
humorist. He sent a selection of his
original jokes to the editor of a news
paper and confidently awaited a re
mittance. His excitement ran high
when he received a letter, obviously
from the newspaper office.
He opened it with feverish haste.
There was no check, however, just a
small note, as follows:
"Dear Sir: Your jokes received.
Some we have seen before; some we
have not seen yet." ? Vancouver Prov

Golden Touch of Baron Rothschild.
The Austrian branch of the Roth
schild family, which Is said to have be
come nationalized In Chechoslovakia,
was founded toward the end of the
Eighteenth century by Solomon, second
son of the patriarchal Maler Amschel.
Solomon, who was made a baron soon
after his settlement In Vienna, was re
puted to enjoy an exceptional share
of the Itothschlld luck, for he never
nrnde an unsuccessful speculation, and
superstition averred that he had "the
golden touch." Among the Jewesses
of Vienna It was firmly believed that
everything he touched with his hand
becnme lucky, and on one occasion a
widow brought to him three lottery
bonds In which she had invested her
daughter's dowry, with the request
that he should touch them and so
ensure that, they would win a prize.
The baron ' touched the bonds, and,
sure enough, they secured prizes.
